bear351c 10,270 Posted September 27, 2018 So, I'm still restoring my GT grille for the Nugget, and went to buy some Argent Silver, and low and behold.......... no-one has any.! So, anyone with an XW, XY, XA, XB, F100 or any 70's era Ford with silver wheels or a grille will have to find an alternative. Went lurking on the Interknob and found a variety of answers, here's what I got so far........ It's still available in US of A, there are several 'versions' of it, most are just numbers from various companies over the years. VHT - SP188 PPG - 8568 DuPont - 411L Dulon -15772 Ford (US) - MX 7031021 Saw the guys at my local AutoPro store, (thanks Benny) and 15772 comes up in the computer. There's only 2 colours, Silver (yeah, funny about that) and crushed Aluminium. That's it. Apparently Ford Muscle Parts, GT Ford Performance, Grand Tourer etc, still sell it. $50 a can. So, if you're gunna paint your 5 slots, 12 slots, or your grille......start stocking up, as these old girls get older, they are going to require repainting at some stage.

deankxf 20,266 Posted September 27, 2018 if there is a listing for it as a paint code? someone might have the formula to just make it up(like the $36 colour match pressure pack you buy from autobarn, paint shops etc) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

351XD_Fairmont 604 Posted September 27, 2018 Supercheap do it in the pressure packs in-store, got a couple not long ago. One of the lads there said if I needed more for a bigger job they can get a tin of it, not sure if he meant they'd order it or mix it up 1 bear351c reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
